Abstract
Nonunion or malunion of forearm fractures may result in restricted range of motion or persistent pain, leading to limitations in activities of daily living. Complications may also present in the form of ectopic bone growth or persistent infections. A systematic method to evaluate complications resulting from forearm fractures is helpful to both determine the cause for the failure and plan for adequate reconstruction.
